Stephen King's 'It' Smashes Records With Massive

You tell us since you post on this board as well
I mean unless you're admitting you're not a /tv/ poster, but a tourist or shill :^)

I'm on the right side of history: the side that knew it would make a lot of money while being a piece of crap

HOW did It do it?
I thought most people hated the mini-series so much that they wouldn't even give this movie a chance

>In addition to its domestic grosses, the horror hit is expected to pull in $62 million from 46 markets overseas, giving “It” a $179 million global debut. That’s a huge win for a movie with an estimated $35 million production budget.

Heh. Well it's going to flop in China so no of those records matter. We win again.

Those annoyed me

If it means more horror movies and less capeshit, I'm all for it. Maybe in 15 years we'll be moaning about lame horrorshit.

>>87564392
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

>>87564373
>expected
>estimated

they don't know anything

It will most likely make 2-10 millions from the overseas markets

By the end of its run, It will have made a grand total of 170-180 millions

since it's got a budget of 35 millions, then it needs 350 millions to start making profit, which means it'll flop hard

>>87564065

What, you want that money to go towards more Capeshit?

>>87564423

This was so fucking annoying, but I was alright with the film other than that.

Perfect timing really;

>Released as kids go back to school so children are on everyone's mind
>Released long enough after the first miniseries to be incredibly nostalgic for 25-35 year olds

I thought the main reason Bev offers herself up is that everybody needs to become an adult to escape the sewers or some shit. I don't remember it being this celebratory sex train that the author is implying.

>>87564650
I'm worried about this too. What made this movie a little refreshing was that it was an all-kid main cast in a fucked up scenario with South Park-tier adult language. Adults doing this shit will just be your run-of-the-mill R-rated horror film. They have a high bar to make the second one even more fucked up.

>>87564904

They have to become adults in order to escape and Bev instinctively knows that is the only way.

>>87564904
>>87565000
Think of it this way, their group came together for a reason, this is pretty strongly hinted at in the books that they're all being moved along by a 'Force' which opposes IT. King likes to use abstract bullshit like that all the time.
Either way, with the supposed 'defeat' of IT at the end of the first half, they lose their common goal and the reason for coming together and so they lose that guiding 'Force'. If you've read the Dark Tower books just think of it as their ka-tet breaking. Bev is also the most 'adult' of the group, outside of maybe Bill those he's autistic ally focused on revenge so maybe not. In effect she initiates the rest of the boys to her level and in doing so gives them all something in common once more, something only they share which allows the 'Group' to once more be established and they once again become something greater than the sum of it's parts.

Still has yet to turn a profit.

>>87565000
Alright, exactly. But this journalism:

>it affirms gendered stereotypes whereby female sexuality exists solely to serve and affirm men (in the book, Bev has sex with the boys to “unite” them after their first battle with Pennywise as children)

Is totally disingenuous and misleads anyone who hasn't read the book.

>>87565441
That's not correct. Now that most people are leaving the theatre with general praise, it'll sway others who had no interest to give it a shot. And a select few others who have seen it will bring friends or family to see it again next weekend.

>With a monster, $117 million opening weekend Warner Bros. and New Line's It has delivered a record-breaking opening, breathing a little life back into the slumping domestic box office. The film has claimed the largest September opening, largest Fall opening, the largest opening for an R-rated horror film, not to mention the largest opening weekend for a horror film of any MPAA rating, and tops Open Road's new release Home Again in second place by nearly $110 million. Overall, the film accounted for more than 75% of the combined gross for the weekend's top twelve, and we've only just begun.

>With an estimated $117 million, WB and New Line's It, an adaptation of the acclaimed Stephen King novel, claimed the weekend's #1 spot with ease, besting Open Road's new release of Home Again in second place by nearly $110 million, the fifth largest gap between first and second place all-time. The film also dusted the previous opening weekend record for an R-rated horror film, more than doubling Paranormal Activity 3's previous record of $52.5 million. In fact, It is already the fifth highest grossing R-rated horror film all-time after just three days in release.

>The horror film's debut was the widest opening ever for an R-rated film and as such delivered the second largest opening for an R-rated movie behind Deadpool's $132.4 million opening last February. Additionally, the previous opening weekend record for September was held by Hotel Transylvania 2 with $48.5 million and the previous Fall opening weekend record was Gravity's $55.7 million, neither of which stood a chance against It and combined don't even come within $10 million.

>It should be mentioned that rival estimates put It's opening over $120 million and some closer to $125 million. One obvious reason for the disparity has to do with Hurricane Irma hitting Florida this weekend where ~175 theaters are closed. The state typically represents 5.5-6.5% of the domestic gross each weekend.

>>87565441
>Has to make three times its budget to turn a profit.
That's for a movie with a relatively large marketing campaign. A movie like this doubling its budget is more realistic for a break even point.

>>87565646
I'd say roughly $300 million, which it won't.

>>87565762

Internationally, It brought in an estimated $62 million from 46 markets for a $179 million global debut. The overseas numbers include the largest opening weekend for a horror film in the U.K. ($12.3m), Russia ($6.7m), Australia ($5.9m), Brazil ($5.6m), Netherlands ($1.4m) and Poland ($1.15m).

So you're saying, you are honestly fucking telling me that a movie that has made $180 million in 3 days with minimal foreign markets won't make another $120 million in its entire run. Also, you literally said earlier it needs to make 3 times its budget, so according to you that'd be $225 million. So by your own fucking numbers it needs to make $45 million, which IT WILL make that in the next week, to make a profit.

>>87564359
It wasn't that people hated the miniseries, its that people who grew up with it have fond memories as a child watching IT. As adults, we can recognize its flaws.

>>87566058
Don't forget Spider-Man. Just became the second highest grossing Spider-Man flick and passed Wonder Woman kek

Why does it seem like people aren't allowed to recognize flaws with the new movie?

>>87564065
I'm happy it's successful regardless of whether or not it's good since it's another R-rated movie that turned out to be well critically and financially, and that means they're going to be making more of them.

How did the movie handled the brutal orgy with ass to mouth scenes?

>>87565250
>Muschietti confirmed for drafted into the DCEU like Wan. What properties should he be given?
He will definitely get Justice League Dark. Or at least a John Constantine movie.

>>87566522
I would say that their is a general consensus of the flaws, and they are many, of the original miniseries.

The new film IT however does not have as many flaws that most people would agree upon. In fact, that may be what makes it a great film, the fact that people often vary in what they liked or didn't like in the new film.

Did anyone on /tv/ actually watch the movie?
What did you think of Georgie getting his arm bit off?

>>87566872
There have been quite a few really good horror films in the last 5 years or so. I genuinely enjoyed IT, but it is not a strict horror film like most films are. It is really reminiscent of the 80's films, where comedy mixed with horror was common.

>>87567050
I know there have been good horror movies released, it's just been common that big studios like WB and Paramount always put out terrible ones.

Good horror usually comes from independent studios like A24.

>>87567009
Not really all that successful considering Disney has to share with Sony, in which Sony will make more box office bombs about Dabbing, or whatever trend that comes around. Maybe CISbusters will get that sequel it so deserved.

>>87564065
I really enjoyed the movie but can people who have read the book say if it's worth trying to get into it?

>>87567019
I was fully expecting the movie to cut to black or something.

When they showed Georgie, not only getting his arm bit off, but also crawling in the ground while bleeding to death, I had a pretty damn big smile on my face.

I'm happy that another R rated film is succesful. End of PG13 nightmare soon?

>>87567019
Not as gruesome as I expected from what people were saying

>>87567455
>people who have read the book say if it's worth trying to get into it?

Yes.

The movie doesnt touch half of how fucked up the book is.

>>87567455
The book is better, it actually goes into the mind and thoughts of IT. You can see that IT is actually scared and petty enough to genuinely hate the kids in the end fight. IT has a gigantic fucking ego and never once considered anything could hurt it. Experiencing fear for IT was something new despite being billions of years old.

>>87566872
Agreed. That scene where Henry kills his dad after seeing the children sing on tv seemed straight out of a Nightmare on Elm Street movie, it was pretty well done


And I know the scene where Bev's sink is turned into a blood fountain is in the book originally but I feel like the way it was portrayed in the movie felt like a homage to Johnny Depp's character's famous death sequence from the original ANoES. I don't know if it was intentional though. Either way, it also felt like a cool callback

>>87568742
>I don't know if it was intentional though.

Considering the theater in the movie is showing Nightmare on Elm Street 5 and has a poster for the film outside, I imagine it may be a little intentional. Remember IT was a New Line film.

So let me get this straight:

Bev seemingly murders her dad.
Mike seemingly murders Bowers.

But no one in town actually cares? I'm guessing Bev moved out of town because of his dad's death, but what did her family say about that? Also, Bill could've called an ambulance, just in case.

>>87569020
Oh yeah, that's true. Also, the way the camera pulls back to show all the blood hitting the ceiling in slow-mo was pretty identical do the way it happens in ANoES

There was actually news of a Nightmare reboot from 2015 but nothing has surfaced since then.

I'm willing to believe that New Line is using IT to gauge interest in a Nightmare reboot with a new actor as Freddy and a different story from the original. New Line Cinema has always been referred to as "The House that Freddy Built" so reviving the franchise is most likely high priority now.

In a world where both critics and audiences give a free pass to mundane and derivative trash like The Conjuring, it doesn't surprise me that this made by committee jump scare laden pile of shit is enough to win over general audiences.

>>87569716
I'd actually be ok with a reboot if done more or less in the mold of this new IT. A story that focuses primarily on the teenagers and their relationships first with the threat of Freddy looming constantly

>>87570593
That sounds interesting, the franchise really does need a new direction for people to be interested in it again. I would also like the backstory of Freddy Krueger to not be explained in full, the audience already knows who he is so redoing that would be unnecessary.

I like how IT handled not explaining the backstory of the creature and simply showed what IT can do.

The drain scene was god-tier, too. Blew the doors off of both the miniseries and the book. Beverly's actress got fucking coated. It was like a crimson bukkake.

>>87568505
The climax of the book is pretty much impossible to adapt into a movie, though. Like, how do you show the kids being astral projected a billion billion light-years while biting into Its mental spider tongue? Same reason they probably didn't do the smoke hole scene, either.

>>87569716

I'd be up for some good news. Was bummed when Rings being buried by Shyamalan bringing his capeshit back with Split apparently buried the new Friday the 13th. I hope It's success resurrects a couple of projects.

At least Carpenter is returning to Halloween too.

Only thing that really disappointed me was Hockstetter's death. They could have still had the leeches. He could have fallen in the sewer water, stood up, and been covered in 'em. Then Pennywise grabs him and vomits a giant leech down his throat. His eyes and nose could fill up with blood, his body spasming, it'd be great.

But no. Zombies. Meh.

You retards tricked me into seeing this, and it was shit. It is literally capeshit with jumpscares, the CGI is awful, there's nothing scary in the entire movie. The only thing that could pass for frightening is how bad it is, and how much they depend on very loud noises to make the audience think they're scared. This is no different from any other shitty modern horror movie.

>>87568505
Yeah, that was cool.

>>87564065
Is it true that IT has to gross 1 billion to break even?

>>87571567
Rings was absolute garbage and I'm glad it bombed but I'm also sad it killed the Friday reboot, it could've been terrible just like Rings but we'll never know.

Carpenter's returning to produce a Halloween sequel has the potential to be decent though, I hope that turns out well.

>>87572055
Needs 3.5 billion to makes it money back, they spent a lot on viral marketting. We all need to get out there and see it to help support it and show the studio they can make money with more horror movies like this

HOWEVER, Paramount cancelled the Friday reboot that was supposed to shoot back in March and release this October. Unless Paramount scraps together a Friday film before an unspecified date in 2018, WB/New Line is going their partial ownership of the IP back.

It's not to break even it's to fund the Homeland Security Clown Squad required to watch for zombie clown hordes, since It's success is putting the World Clown Association on suicide watch.

You should. I read it in anticipation for the movie. It's pretty great. It's a fat sucker though - over 1000 pages.

I know, but I really don't mind the lenght. I really enjoyed the movie and it made me interested in knowing more about all the characters and the lore

The only real feels i got was from Billy talking about Georgie scenes. Other than that i gave no shit about any other kid.

Literally in a cinema phoneposting while watching this. Friends dragged me to it.
It's shit.

Georgie hasn't even reached the drain in the first 5 minutes.

Christ.

It's made 180 mil. Since you're clearly a retard I suggest getting the ol' calculator out and seeing what three times 35 is.

2nd half was an absolute piece of shit. You can tell where the big rewrites came in.

*inhales*

I'm so happy that it's doing well.

This is a win for R rated movies and Horror films. Hopefully now there will be more R rated horror films.

IT was a really well made movie. I'd actually go see it again if I had the time.

Deadpool's success, as much as its existence annoys /tv/ and now IT's success might mean a complete return of R rated movies. No more toned down PG shit.

>>87575622
Thanks for the recommendation. If I end up liking IT I'll surely check out King's other works, especially the most popular ones I've already thought about reading

>>87577193
Yeah Deadpool showed the same thing, that people will go to R films if they're good and studios shouldn't be afraid to make them.

>>87576870

>IT manages to make almost every character from the losers to Henry Bowers interesting as well as having a great monster

How did they do it?

>>87564392
It'll be completely non-violent. Saw Alien Covenant in China and literally all of the gory scenes were cut out. Barely even saw the fucking alien.

Cast chemistry

>>87564423
It can mind control and psychologically effect people - the whole point of Georgie was the psychological trauma causes Billy to forget the situation he is in momentarily.

The Georgie illusions aren't there to scare Billy - they're there to isolate Billy and make him vulnerable so he is easier to scare

>After arriving on Earth, It would sleep for approximately 27 to 30 years at a time, then awaken to wreak chaos and feed (primarily on children's fear). It is able to take many more forms than the film depicts, including werewolves, bats, leeches, and sharks. It could embody any of a child's worst fears.
>Also in the novel, It is only able to be stopped when Bill performs the Ritual of Chüd, which results in a cataclysmic earthquake that destroys half of Derry, Maine.
>It apparently originated in a void containing and surrounding the Universe, a place referred to in the novel as the "Macroverse" (a concept similar to the later established "Todash Darkness" of the Dark Tower novels).

why does anyone read stephen king books

Same here. I thought the dramatic parts were very well done desu

I guess half of it thanks to Finn when he was promoting the flick before it even got any promotion.
Literally most of the fanbase of the movie were from the ST fanbase

Not an argument

If you've spent alot of time on this board you can almost tell the exact moment that /tv/ had to stop liking this movie cause it's popular.

Fucking BASED

>>87564065
Why would /tv/ care or have any stake in whether a film does well or not? Is this an elaborate meme?

>>87564461

I exclusively come to this board to read stupid shit like this.

You guys are the dumbest bottom feeders on the planet and it's great to just pop in here and there to see one of you say something so completely stupid.

>>87584881

Sure he does, but who would even want her by that point?

>>87564803
You know the IT novel came out in 1987, right?

>>87585041
She was pretty based in the movie idk

>>87572333
How is that even possible?

The movie was shit. It was literally like every other PG-13 "horror" movie where there's nothing scary, only loud noises that make you jump, except it had more gore and swearing. It absolutely makes sense why normalfags are going crazy for this turd, I felt ripped off

>>87580139

They were gauging interest supposedly.

Beats me since it's not the same kinds of movies. Maybe because Samara (or whatever her name is) would also be a returning horror icon like Jason.

Let's see how Jigsaw does.

>>87564807
I remember when avatar and tdk came out people claimed that they needed 4 billion to break even.

Anybody have a gif or pic of the scene where Pennywise was cross eyed while talking to the asthma kid? That part was hilarious.

Damn, that's pretty impressive for an R rated movie.
It's already earning more on opening week than Dark Tower's entire theatrical run

>>87585135
I meant in the book.

>>87564065
i contributed $5.50 to that $117 million.

>>87564392

R-ficionados would know better than relying on the country that outright banned Deadpool and butchered Alien Flopenant in order to save their movie.

Good thing It isn't some overbudgeted domestic disaster like Mummy.
